Chris Brogan’s Blogging Tips

Write posts where customer is the hero
When your customer uses your product or service to solve their problem in some way they become your product heroes. These stories are often compelling, especially to your audience who is likely to have a similar need or problem. Chris used an example in the podcast where a vacuum business could write about how one customer gets twice the life from their vacuum filter.

Write blog posts around the topics you’d find in a community or topics FAQ page
Chris was bumming around the bargain e-book section of Amazon.com where he was looking for markeing and writing gems when he found one. Seek out the frequently asked question page (FAQ) for sites that exist within your topic area. If you are a painting contractor pour over decorating sites or home improvement sites to study their FAQ pages. Now build blog posts that address these questions with your own voice and solution. GREAT idea.
